I didn’t end up starting Project 333 on March 1st.  Quite honestly, I didn’t have the time to whittle things down and make decisions about what my 33 items would be.  The next run of the Project began on April 1, so I decided I would be on the same schedule as most.

I have whittled things down, although not exactly to 33 items.  I have everything that is an option hanging in my closet.  After I wear something I move it to the other side of my closet that, thanks to the Project, is currently empty.

I am not sure I will be able to stick to 33 items.  This is primarily because I layer so much.  Each day I wear at least three items of clothing, shoes, and a jacket.  I also have to dress professionally for work and then I have clothes for the evenings and weekends.  These are not items that can easily transition from one purpose to another.

I am keeping track though.  I have a piece of paper that I have numbered and each time I wear something different I add it to the list.  We have just completed the fifth day and I have already worn nineteen items.

I am glad I am participating.  I do think that I look much more put together than I did before I started the Project.  And I have found it true what people say about receiving compliments.  I have gotten compliment after compliment about how good I look.  That definitely makes a girl feel good!

Small Notebook has a great post today:  How to downsize your wardrobe with common sense.  I love this line:  My current wardrobe is the size that most people take on vacation.  I am not there yet, but I am getting much closer and it is a great goal to have.  Project 333 is definitely helping me get there.
